Creative Wrapping, Thoughtful Giving: Tea Towel Gift Wrap Ideas

Traditionally, linen tea towels were designed to commemorate coronations and celebrations. We love them today as modern heirlooms –– wrapped around gifts, they become special keepsakes. Packaging a gift with a tea towel is simple and impressive, not to mention environmentally kind. And the thoughtfulness is always appreciated by the lucky recipient. Here are a few ideas to get you started.

Plant Wrap

I love this idea in the springtime, for Mother's Day or a housewarming gift especially. I go to my local nursery, pick out a culinary plant that's ready for the garden or window box, and wrap a tea towel around the pot for a special touch.

Bottle Wrap

Whether it's a dinner party or a birthday celebration you're off to, a favorite bottle (wine or champagne, tequila, olive oil) wrapped in a colorful, patterned tea towel makes the presentation extra special and memorable.
